A member asked:

Been on haloperidol for 2 days 0.5 mg x 2 a day. if i stopped taking it now would i have withdrawals?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Haldol (haloperidol) withdrawal.: Stopping Haldol (haloperidol) after taking it only for two days should not cause any withdrawal problems yet it may make the reason for starting the Haldol (haloperidol) resurface.
